MEET THE HYPSOS
The power supply as an audio component.
Ferrum's hybrid power system with adjustable 5–30V output, Sweet Spot Tuning, 4T Sensing Design and wide compatibility.
Sweet Spot Tuning
Fine-tune the output voltage on the fly to find the best sound for your device.
Voltage where it matters
4T Sensing Design keeps the exact voltage at the device's DC input, up to 6A of current.
Read the full description
The Ferrum HYPSOS defines a new category of hi-fi product: not a simple power supply but an audio component in its own right, as important to a system as any other part of it. Designed and made in Poland by HEM, it combines linear and switching techniques and delivers an adjustable 5–30V at up to 6A, so one HYPSOS can power a wide range of DACs, amplifiers and streamers, with Sweet Spot Tuning to find the voltage that sounds best. It is Ferrum’s first product, and the natural partner for the OOR and WANDLA.
A hybrid power system
The linear/switching hybrid design gets the advantages of both techniques: the low ripple and noise of a linear supply with the fast transient response and high efficiency of a switching one. Ferrum’s aim is a detailed and revealing yet unfatiguing sound that lets your system perform to its potential. HYPSOS is software-controlled, with as few hardware-dependent elements as possible, so it can benefit from future software improvements.
Works with your equipment
An extensive list of compatible devices is flashed into HYPSOS, and can easily be updated, to make set-up straightforward and safe: choose your device from the list, or set custom parameters manually. The output voltage and DC plug polarity are controlled electronically, so you can power a lot of equipment without buying different versions of the product or cable, and HYPSOS always asks you to confirm the parameters before it applies power.
Sweet Spot Tuning
Sweet Spot Tuning (SST) lets you experiment with the voltage supplied to your device. Within the safe range set by its manufacturer, adjust the level on the fly and compare the results without risking damage to your equipment, and combine it with the 4-Terminal Sensing and Spread Spectrum Mode settings you prefer.
4T Sensing Design
Ferrum’s output cable has four wires: two deliver the power and two carry feedback, so HYPSOS keeps the voltage exactly right at your device’s DC input at every moment. This 4-Terminal Sensing Design (4TSD) eliminates the harmful effects of the cable’s resistance and significantly speeds up current delivery at the device, improving transient response.
Automation and safety
HYPSOS works with an Apple TV remote, has a trigger input and output, and can power your devices up automatically from standby even without a dedicated trigger connection. It is extremely safe to use, with Automatic Transformer Voltage Adjust (ATVA), an electronic output-voltage polarity switch, and over-voltage, current-limit and short-circuit protection.

Good to know
- Our HYPSOS ships with the Ferrum Power Link 4-pin cable for Ferrum components. To power a device with a 5.5mm DC socket, add a Ferrum 4-pin to 5.5 × 2.5mm or 4-pin to 5.5 × 2.1mm cable.
